I love everything about this! What a grand adventure. My husband wants to do the overnight fjords on our next visit. Can’t wait to hear.

This sounds so excellent. Please say hi to Joyce for me. I hope to see her in June when I head to Singapore. Alas my travels switch paths with you guys at different times. Also have fun with Kathleen. The South Island is amazing!

Wow! Amazing trip - so jealous. While in Brisbane go to Lone Pine Sanctuary. See koalas 🐨 (i got to hold one; softest animal), 'roos (very muscle-y) and wallabies 🦘. My sister is in Canberra; will ask if she knows any Adelaide folk.

I do not know any rabbis in Adelaide HOWEVER https://www.upj.org.au/news/act-jc-announces-rabbi-robuck-as-education-program-director/ Gary Robuck grew up in CLE, became a rabbi in Melbourne for many years and probably knows all the rabbis in Australia. https://www.facebook.com/gary.robuck/ Have a great trip!

omg Gary Robuck knows my cousin Susan Saltzman (in Cleveland)!

I went to Hebrew School with Alan ("Hillel") Robuck in Cleveland - I bet they're related!
